A world away from the perfect fairways of the pro golf tour, Colin Montgomerie gave a master class in one of the world's unlikeliest driving ranges. For over an hour he gave personal coaching to forces golf fans spread out across the windswept dust of Camp Bastion, Britain's massive supply base in Afghanistan. As he expertly drove ball-after-ball onto targets borrowed from the rifle ranges, he joked how helicopter gunships low overhead might cramp his drive. The Ryder Cup-winning captain spent four days in Afghanistan between international tournaments, boosting morale and equipping Bastion's very first Golf course, with thousands of pounds worth of donated equipment. He told troops he did not realise how few stars had risked a trip to Helmand. "I thought there were so-called celebrities and sportsmen out here on a weekly basis." "But it doesn't happen. This is irregular and it's fantastic to come out here and showcase golf to you guys."

War in Afghanistan (2001–14)

The War in Afghanistan (or the American war in Afghanistan) is the period in which the United States invaded Afghanistan after the September 11 attacks. Supported initially by close allies, they were later joined by NATO beginning in 2003. It followed the Afghan Civil War's 1996–2001 phase. Its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and to deny it a safe base of operations in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power. Key allies, including the United Kingdom, supported the U.S. from the start to the end of the phase. This phase of the War is the longest war in United States history.

Honeymoon in Kabul is an inspirational documentary which follows newly weds, midwife Maggie Haertsch and clown doctor Jean PaulBell, on their whirlwind mission to take medical aid and humour to the children of Kabul. Maggie and Jean Paul arrive in Kabul amidst riots and discover that their precious cargo of advanced medical equipment is strewn over a dirty hospital floor, useless in a country where electricity is unreliable and thousands of children are dying of malnutrition and dysentery every year.
The film explores the responsibility and power of the individual to make positive change in society, and the politics of aid and charity, asking whether well-intentioned amateurs can actually make any difference in a country racked with troubles and visiting one of Afghanistan’s most respected political activists and parliamentarians. As Jean Paul entertains gun-wielding Afghans, nervous American soldiers, and sick children, the film also investigates the role of humour in the face of adversity and its potential to unify and transcend race, class and culture.
Lucky to leave Afghanistan alive, Maggie and Jean Paul take us on a hair-raising and fascinating journey which shows that the delivery of aid in Afghanistan is as complex and delicate as any second marriage.

Kids Answer "What is the Best Country in the World?"

We hear a lot about how great America is or how great America was. We grew up hearing America was number one - and Jimmy never questioned that, but he wondered what kids today think. So we sent a camera crew out onto the street to ask kids “What is the best country in the world?”

The war in Afghanistan is the period in which the United States invaded the country after the September 11 attacks, supported initially by close allies, and eventually by the wider North Atlantic Treaty Organization, beginning in 2003. The conflict is also known as the U.S. war in Afghanistan. It followed the Afghan Civil War's 1996–2001 phase. Its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda, and to deny it a safe base of operations in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power. Key allies supported the U.S. from the start, including the United Kingdom. In August 2003, NATO became involved as an alliance, taking the helm of the International Security Assistance Force. On 28 December 2014, NATO formally ended combat operations in Afghanistan and transferred full security responsibility to the Afghan government, via a ceremony in Kabul.
U.S. PresidentGeorge W. Bush demanded that the Taliban hand over Osama bin Laden and expel al-Qaeda, bin Laden had already been wanted by the U.N. since 1999. The Taliban declined to extradite him unless given what they deemed convincing evidence of his involvement in the 9/11 attacks and ignored demands to shut down terrorist bases and hand over other terrorist suspects apart from bin Laden. The request was dismissed by the U.S. as a meaningless delaying tactic and it launched Operation Enduring Freedom on 7 October 2001 with the United Kingdom. The two were later joined by other forces, including the Northern Alliance. The U.S. and its allies drove the Taliban from power and built military bases near major cities across the country. Most al-Qaeda and Taliban were not captured, escaping to neighboring Pakistan or retreating to rural or remote mountainous regions.
In December 2001, the United Nations Security Council established the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), to assist the Afghan interim authorities with securing Kabul. At the Bonn Conference in December 2001, Hamid Karzai was selected to head the Afghan Interim Administration, which after a 2002 loya jirga in Kabul became the Afghan Transitional Administration. In the popular elections of 2004, Karzai was elected president of the country, now named the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.
In 2003, NATO assumed leadership of ISAF, with troops from 43 countries. NATO members provided the core of the force. One portion of U.S. forces in Afghanistan operated under NATO command; the rest remained under direct U.S. command. Taliban leaderMullah Omar reorganized the movement, and in 2003, launched an insurgency against the government and ISAF.
Though vastly outgunned and outnumbered, the Taliban insurgents, most notably the Haqqani Network and Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, have waged asymmetric warfare with guerilla raids and ambushes in the countryside, suicide attacks against urban targets and turncoat killings against coalition forces. The Taliban exploited weaknesses in the Afghan government, among the most corrupt in the world, to reassert influence across rural areas of southern and eastern Afghanistan. ISAF responded in 2006 by increasing troops for counterinsurgency operations to "clear and hold" villages and "nation building" projects to "win hearts and minds".
While ISAF continued to battle the Taliban insurgency, fighting crossed into neighboring North-West Pakistan. In 2004, the Pakistani Army began to clash with local tribes hosting al-Qaeda and Taliban militants. The US military launched drone attacks in Pakistan to kill insurgent leaders. This resulted in the start of an insurgency in Waziristan in 2007.
On 2 May 2011, United States Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden in Abbotabad, Pakistan. In May 2012, NATO leaders endorsed an exit strategy for withdrawing their forces. UN-backed peace talks have since taken place between the Afghan government and the Taliban. In May 2014, the United States announced that its combat operations would end in 2014, leaving just a small residual force in the country until the end of 2016.
As of2015, tens of thousands of people have been killed in the war. Over 4,000 ISAF soldiers and civilian contractors as well as over 15,000 Afghan national security forces members have been killed. In October 2014, British forces handed over the last bases in Helmand to the Afghan military, officially ending their combat operations in the war.

Most al-Qaeda and Taliban were not captured, escaping to neighboring Pakistan or retreating to rural or remote mountainous regions.
In December 2001, the United Nations Security Council established the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), to assist the Afghan interim authorities with securing Kabul. At the Bonn Conference in December 2001, Hamid Karzai was selected to head the Afghan Interim Administration, which after a 2002 loya jirga in Kabul became the Afghan Transitional Administration. In the popular elections of 2004, Karzai was elected president of the country, now named the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.
In 2003, NATO assumed leadership of ISAF, with troops from 43 countries. NATO members provided the core of the force. One portion of U.S. forces in Afghanistan operated under NATO command; the rest remained under direct U.S. command. Taliban leaderMullah Omar reorganized the movement, and in 2003, launched an insurgency against the government and ISAF.
Though vastly outgunned and outnumbered, the Taliban insurgents, most notably the Haqqani Network and Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, have waged asymmetric warfare with guerilla raids and ambushes in the countryside, suicide attacks against urban targets and turncoat killings against coalition forces. The Taliban exploited weaknesses in the Afghan government, among the most corrupt in the world, to reassert influence across rural areas of southern and eastern Afghanistan. ISAF responded in 2006 by increasing troops for counterinsurgency operations to "clear and hold" villages and "nation building" projects to "win hearts and minds".
While ISAF continued to battle the Taliban insurgency, fighting crossed into neighboring North-West Pakistan. In 2004, the Pakistani Army began to clash with local tribes hosting al-Qaeda and Taliban militants. The US military launched drone attacks in Pakistan to kill insurgent leaders. This resulted in the start of an insurgency in Waziristan in 2007.
On 2 May 2011, United States Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden in Abbotabad, Pakistan. In May 2012, NATO leaders endorsed an exit strategy for withdrawing their forces. UN-backed peace talks have since taken place between the Afghan government and the Taliban. In May 2014, the United States announced that its combat operations would end in 2014, leaving just a small residual force in the country until the end of 2016.
As of2015, tens of thousands of people have been killed in the war. Over 4,000 ISAF soldiers and civilian contractors as well as over 15,000 Afghan national security forces members have been killed. In October 2014, British forces handed over the last bases in Helmand to the Afghan military, officially ending their combat operations in the war.

Afghanistan War - Compilation of US ArmySoldiers In Heavy Clashes Fighting And Firefights Against Taliban forces filmed in 2010-14.
The war in Afghanistan or the American war in Afghanistan was the period in which the United States invaded Afghanistan after the September 11 attacks. Supported initially by close allies, they were later joined by NATO beginning in 2003. It followed the Afghan Civil War's 1996–2001 phase. Its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and to deny it a safe base of operations in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power. Key allies, including the United Kingdom, supported the U.S. from the start to the end of the phase. This phase of the war is the longest war in United States history.

A soldier is one who fights as part of an organized land-based armed force[1]; if that force is for hire the person is generally termed a mercenary soldier, or mercenary.[2] The majority of cognates of the word "soldier" that exist in other languages have a meaning that embraces both commissioned and non-commissioned officers in national land forces.

[edit] Etymology
The word soldier entered modern English in the 14th century, from the equivalent Middle English word soudeour, from Anglo-French soudeer or soudeour, meaning mercenary, from soudee, meaning shilling's worth or wage, from sou or soud, shilling.[3] The word is also related to the Medieval Latin soldarius, meaning soldier (literally, "one having pay").[4] These words were ultimately derived from the Late Latin word solidus, referring to an Ancient Roman coin used in the Byzantine Empire.[3][4]
[edit] Occupational designations
In most armed forces use of the word soldier has taken on a more general meaning, due to the increasing specialization of military occupations that require different areas of knowledge and skill-sets. As a result, "soldiers" are referred to by names or ranks which reflect an individual's military occupation specialty arm, service or branch of military employment, their type of unit, or operational employment or technical use such as: trooper, tanker, commando, dragoon, infantryman, marine, paratrooper, ranger, sniper, engineer, sapper, medic, or a gunner.
U.S. Army soldiers on patrol in IraqBritish Army soldiers on exercise
Canadian Army soldiers on urban warfare training
[edit] Other terms
In many countries soldiers serving in specific occupations are referred to by terms other than their occupational name. For example military police personnel in the UK are known as "redcaps" from the colour of their berets or other headwear.
In theUnited States Army, infantrymen are called "grunts", while artillerymen are sometimes referred to as "redlegs", from the branch color for artillery. US soldiers are often called "G.I.s".
FrenchMarineInfantry are called marsouins (French: porpoises) because of their amphibious role.[citation needed] Military units in most armies have nicknames of this type, arising either from items of distinctive uniform, some historical connotation or rivalry between branches or regiments.
[edit] Career soldier
Most soldiers serve a single term, especially draftees. Others choose to serve until retirement; then they receive a pension and other benefits. In theUSA, servicemembers can retire at 20 years.[5] In other services, 30 years (hence the term "30-year man").

Doing Business Better in Afghanistan

Afghanistan’s ranking in Doing Business—a World Bank report that measures business regulations across 190 economies—jumped up from 183 in 2018 to 167 in 2019, earning the country a coveted spot in this year’s global top improvers. This substantial progress is the upshot of five reforms implemented in 2017 to improve the business environment for the private sector.

Afghan Overdose. Inside opium trade

Afghanistan is the world’s biggest exporter of black-market opium from which heroin is made. It’s a multi-billion dollar business, responsible for around a hundred thousand deaths every year and it’s a major source of income for terrorists. RT Doc travelled to the poppy fields where death is harvested to find out why no one can put a stop to this deadly trade.
When it comes to heroin, a non-intervention policy is still going strong in Afghanistan where over 90% of the world’s black market opium is produced. Most finds its way onto the international drug market and the profits fund organized crime and terrorist groups like ISIS, which is growing in strength here.

Afghanistan is the world’s biggest exporter of black-market opium from which heroin is made.

RT Doc travelled to the poppy fields where death is harvested to find out why no one can put a stop to this deadly trade.
When it comes to heroin, a non-intervention policy is still going strong in Afghanistan where over 90% of the world’s black market opium is produced. Most finds its way onto the international drug market and the profits fund organized crime and terrorist groups like ISIS, which is growing in strength here.
The dealers and manufacturers aren’t hard to find: they live in luxurious houses, have fields blooming with poppies and sell their narcotic wares in broad daylight. Even so, they still manage to evade arrest. Poppy fields are destroyed and drugs seized but it’s only ever the middle men who are punished, not the drug lords. There’s been a NATO military presence in the country for 14 years now but still, drugs production continues to grow.
Local people suffer from the drug business too, around 18% of the capital’s population are drug addicts. The places where drugs are sold and used are well known but the police are powerless to act. Mafia wars drive civilians from their land in the southern regions, forcing them into refugee camps in their own country. Opium growers get rich by plunging fellow citizens into the depths of misery.
RT Doc’s investigative team visited Afghanistan to document the Police’s losing battle against opium producers and its effect on the rest of the country. They talk to police officers, drug users and opium growers in search of a fuller picture and to ask why this massive and life-destroying industry continues to flourish.

Afghanistan is the world’s biggest exporter of black-market opium from which heroin is made. It’s a multi-billion dollar business, responsible for around a hundred thousand deaths every year and it’s a major source of income for terrorists. RT Doc travelled to the poppy fields where death is harvested to find out why no one can put a stop to this deadly trade.
When it comes to heroin, a non-intervention policy is still going strong in Afghanistan where over 90% of the world’s black market opium is produced. Most finds its way onto the international drug market and the profits fund organized crime and terrorist groups like ISIS, which is growing in strength here.
The dealers and manufacturers aren’t hard to find: they live in luxurious houses, have fields blooming with poppies and sell their narcotic wares in broad daylight. Even so, they still manage to evade arrest. Poppy fields are destroyed and drugs seized but it’s only ever the middle men who are punished, not the drug lords. There’s been a NATO military presence in the country for 14 years now but still, drugs production continues to grow.
Local people suffer from the drug business too, around 18% of the capital’s population are drug addicts. The places where drugs are sold and used are well known but the police are powerless to act. Mafia wars drive civilians from their land in the southern regions, forcing them into refugee camps in their own country. Opium growers get rich by plunging fellow citizens into the depths of misery.

Hidden Gems: After suffering the Soviets, the Taliban, and the War on Terror, Afghanistan has had its share of turmoil; but can 1,000 billion dollars worth of emeralds lift Afghanistan out of poverty?

"We have a lot of requests from Europe because the Emeralds from Afghanistan are the best in the world", Raphael says. He's a Frenchman who first came to Afghanistan to train Afghan security services before venturing into the emerald trade. He sees a huge chance here to exploit a market that could easily increase in value twenty or thirty-fold, but the obstacles are not inconsiderable. Just to get to the mines Raphael has to travel the 150 Kilometres from Kabul to Panjshir, right through Taliban kidnap country. When he gets there he finds an industry in the dark ages, where homemade pyrotechnics are exploded in poorly dug mineshafts, killing many miners and ruining the quality of up to 75% of the stones they dig.
"If you see the damage being done to these stones... so much is lost", YamaTorabi from Integrity Watch Afghanistan tells us. The government here remains hopelessly out of touch with the industry that "still (uses) a mining law adopted 100 years ago". But as the country prepares for elections and Europeans like Raphael open up the gem trade here, could this be a beacon of hope for the future?

Following the arrest of Afghan heroin baron, Haji Bashir Noorzai, we bring back the award-winning report which first exposed him. It contains excellent undercover footage of the Kandahar opium markets.
On the streets of Sangin, it is business as usual for the opium wholesalers and brokers. "We buy it from the farmers here and then we take it to the Iranian border," comments one local dealer. At $800 a kilo, opium is too lucrative to ignore and the traders are relieved the Americans show no intention of closing down their operations. "You take away opium and you suck the oxygen out of this economy," says Michael Ware of Time magazine.

Art at the Stake. Afghan artists risk lives to return style, music, and culture to their country

Shrine or hospital? Mental health choices in Afghanistan

Bringing health care to Afghanistan's vulnerable women

Improving women's access to medical care is helping reverse troubling trends in Afghanistan, one of the world's most dangerous places to bear children. For more information, visit: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/afghanistan_72846.html.

Despite Insecurity, Health in Afghanistan Is Improving

Despite insecurity, Afghanistan has made strong and sustained gains in improving its citizens' health, especially women and children. Essential health services have remained resilient and even improved overall, including in highly insecure areas.
http://wrld.bg/jiU830iJ2e2

The kind of health care that many of us take for granted is out of reach to hundreds of thousands of Afghans, and pregnant women and children are among the most vulnerable.
Great distances, towering mountains and other natural barriers prevent many people from being able to reach a clinic or hospital in a larger town. The remoteness of many communities, combined by grinding poverty and limited social services, are factors that also hinder the recruitment of qualified health staff to work in such isolated locations.
But several initiatives are helping to remedy such ills.
Powered by horses and donkeys, mobile medical teams are now trudging up dusty, narrow mountain paths to remote villages where they dispense essential health services to thousands of people, such as vaccinations an...

Afghanistan's psychiatric challenge

The WorldHealthOrganisation says more than 60 per cent of the people in Afghanistan suffer from mental-health problems, but there is only one specialist psychiatric hospital in the whole country.
Extreme poverty, conflict and abuse are just some of the reasons psychiatric problems are so pervasive in the war-ravaged country. The patients that the solitary mental health hospital can treat are a tiny fraction of those desperate for help.
Al Jazeera'sSue Turton reports from Kabul.

Providing Health Care in Helmand, Afghanistan

Photojournalist Ton Koene traveled to Helmand Province, Afghanistan, in June 2010 to visit the MSF project in the capital, Lashkargah. Intense conflict in the province has left around one million people without access to the health care they need. Here, Koene documents how each member of the MSF team there is working to save lives and provide free medical care in Lashkargah.

Empowering Women for Better Healthcare in Afghanistan

In Afghanistan, women are receiving training to become nurses or midwives under the Community Midwifery Education (CME) and Community HealthNursing Education (CHNE) programs. This training is one of the measures undertaken to address the shortage of female health workers, deliver better health services, and help fulfil the ambitions of many women to serve their community.

Improving Nutrition for Mothers, Newborns and Children (INMNC) in Afghanistan was a Global Affairs Canada funded project from 2013-2017 which aimed at improving the nutritional status of newborns, children under five and women of reproductive age in selected provinces in Afghanistan through a sustainable and gender sensitive approach to nutrition service delivery within the health system. Save the Children worked in close collaboration with the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) and locally selected BasicPackage of Health Services (BPHS) implementing NGOs to address the dismal maternal, newborn and child nutrition (MNCN) situation in the nine provinces where nutritional health, particularly of women and children is very poor.

Powered by horses and donkeys, mobile medical teams are now trudging up dusty, narrow mountain paths to remote villages where they dispense essential health services to thousands of people, such as vaccinations and reproductive health care.
Women from remote communities are also being selected for training as midwives so they can take their life-saving skills back to their own communities to care for their own people.
Such initiatives are a step in the right direction and require continued support to ensure public health improves and health care in remote communities becomes sustainable.

The project’s aims were:
• Increasing availability of nutrition-related goods and services for women and children.
• Increasing awareness and knowledge among both men and women of malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies.
• Enhancing government capacity to plan, implement and evaluate maternal, newborn and child health programs.
This project video illustrates how SCC leveraged gender equality approaches empowering women and girls at the individual, family, community and governmental levels to improve the health and nutritional status of boys and girls under five, and women in a 4 year project in Afghanistan. It highlights innovative approaches to providing services that respond to gender-based barriers, as well as how we engaged a diverse set of stakeholders, including men. The video demonstrates the project’s impact on gender equality by demonstrating how the change process happened for individuals, groups, organizations, and communities; it captures stories that feature the project’s specific responses to widespread gender inequalities, which have a critical impact on health and nutrition outcomes for girls, boys and women in Afghanistan.
